 Hi everybody it's Sam at Mixup Craft thank you for watching today so I've got box number six from the Papercraft Society this one has been designed by Christina Griffiths and as always they give you a nice kind of peek to what's going to be inside with the designs that are on the front so you can see this beautiful water-colored flowers and that boiling throughout and also in the writing there as well so it's a really pretty box so let's get straight into it. So this one says wow it's time to play again Christina so Christina actually designed the very first Papercraft Society box so yeah six months later and here we are with the sixth box so we've got the envelope and then the tissue paper so I have already had a look so I just wanted to check obviously you know everything was there and I wanted to have a little I was too excited to be honest so keep the tissue paper because that's always nice and then we've got our booklet so this is Christina have a little look at that in more detail in a moment. So we've got our ink pads these do come in a little plastic pocket but I did go and take them out just again to have a little look I do like these because they stack but I have made the storage to hold loads of these so you can hold 40 per drawer I'll link that up here actually if anybody's interested because it's a really nice project and we'll have a look at those in more detail in a moment we've got our card there again we'll look at all this I'm just going to take everything out this is the card you get one every month this one is trying to decide which colors work together look to mother nature for ideas I actually do do that a lot especially when I'm like drawing maybe or coloring a tree or looking at like a landscape I can just look at my window and I've got really nice fields and stuff in front so it does actually yeah it really does help so this one on the back is guides a guide to inks so you've got hybrid dye basting pigment ink embossing ink stays on and distress inks and it tells you about them there and what you can use them with so it's actually really handy and I say it every time I do one of these unboxings but I always punch a hole and I've got a key ring with them all on there so good to have those so then we've got some ribbon really pretty like lemon yellow there with the polka dots on it and you've got quite a lot on there as well then we've got some flat backed pearls these are just your desu pearls and you've got a two yeah two sizes there and then we have this here which well I'm guessing it's to shape your flowers and it's quite nice with that like ombre effect there but that's yeah that's what I'm thinking it's for but we'll have a look in the book in a moment and then this is your cardstock so we have these I've got a very subtle polka dot a white polka dot through them so you've got two in the lemon yellow then we've got two in that beautiful lavender and then two in that soft pink really nice and then we've got two in like this real bright lime really really lovely and then oh and then on the back it's plain so that's quite nice you have the contrast there the polka dot all the plain but um yeah I really like them love these together actually they look really nice in fact all of them go really nicely so that's the cardstock and then we've got the ink pads here so like I said before they stack nicely you've got three here let's have a little look oh they look they look different let's have a little look they're really like higher much much more dimension on those let me just grab just grabbing my drawer let's just grab one have a little look yeah it just looks different see on the sides there so I have to test them out see what the others are like yeah they're all really really it's like they've swollen it's like a sponge and um you know they've they've swollen it with all the pigment in them so look at that one as well these are all tapes though which is actually quite good not that I've had any of the lids come off but it's the first time I've had the little sticky tapes on the side so yeah I mean there's a different pink but you can see just how much more raised so I mean I want to say that there's a lot more I mean when you push on the side there you can see all of the color so they are they're very juicy which is what I said that one I first opened them so I'll make sure I get the right lids colors on there you're probably watching them thinking Sam that's not right there we go so there the three without pop that to one side and yep we talked about that so that's those pieces there and then we've got the book so we look at that in a moment and then we've got our envelope so we have so see I have a happy accident cover it or have a happy accident cover it with flower gemstones or butterfly and then don't be too critical of yourself just enjoy your crafting I'm always saying that glitter makes it well go around this one's really funny because it reminds me of my mom because if there's ever a rogue embellishment and I say to her why is that one over there and then she'll say oh I dropped a bit of ink on it or I got a bit of glue there and it's just I've done it as well it's just quite funny so in the first pocket here we have our stamps and the toppers let's just take that one out there so you've got silver foiling and then that real subtle floral background and you have happy Easter so that's obviously going to be useful for now Easter blessings if friends with flowers I pick you wishing you all the wonderful gifts of spring may love and beauty bloom this Easter that's quite nice wishing you an Easter filled with love thank you thinking of you special friend it's your day spring her sprung some nice ones yeah I like that and then you've got these plain toppers here so I imagine you can layer some of these up on top of that but also you can stamp your images and yeah there will be lots of inspiration no doubt in the booklet but they're nice and then this is the stamp set I'm just going to turn over one of these just so we can see there what we've got so you've got these kind of sprays of flowers which will look nice over the plant pot there friends are the flowers in the Garden of Life on your special day with love happy Easter like that it's quite a large one thinking of you then you've got some leaves more lovely flowers and they're all they're not too detailed so the perfect color love the tulips and the vase happy Mother's Day it's another nice one there and then you've even got the twine with the bow which will go perfectly around the plant pot there so yeah that's nice very pretty so pop that one in there and then you've got your embossing folder and the dies now I put my dies on this metal on this magnetic sheet so they don't come with this they come on a plastic and they're stuck on there so I just took them off but I can see how already these are going to coordinate so you have this die here which will sit perfectly over there so you can die cut this piece and then you can cut it in half and you can do some really nice effects in fact I've already had a nice idea on something I could do with that so I will try that out and share that with you but the one that's totally stood out is this I think it's absolutely stunning and I don't have one with this kind of shape to it I've got ones that are very straight just to kind of you know edge your card but this one here you can create such a nice effect and I like that you have the option to have it you know die cut into the card stock or you can have it to create the edge of a card so you can imagine it would be that way you know that's a five by seven card there and that would be the edge of it but also you could do multiple strips of this you could create a really nice window effect actually so yeah I'm really looking forward to using that one because it's just that little bit different and I'm imagining that these flowers here this here would be able to layer on top although saying that there is the die there as well I don't know but they all all will work they're the same flower all of this here and everything so yeah that's really nice and you've also got best wishes now this actually looks familiar I have the I say original I mean from the main collection there is the best wishes but it's bigger so this is slightly smaller and it's always good to have you know even if it is the same die but in different sizes because you'll always make that project where your wish that something was a little bit smaller or that little bit bigger so it's yeah that's that's good I like that one like the leaf shape as well it's a little bit more more like a bubbly kind of leaf then you've got these kind of ornate decorative pieces you've got a bit of kind of trellis effect there got that swirly edge and then your flowers again these are going to look really nice distressed and that's where this is going to come into use so you'll be able to really you know roll this over them to really create some nice shape and dimension to the flowers so I think that's yep really really nice so pop that one back in there and then finally we have the pattern papers so this is the print on the front of the box really really pretty beautiful watercolor images then we've got this one which is the same patterns but just framed so again really nice and then you've got this one here which again very pretty pattern and then you've got that one there which kind of coordinates with it as well and you've got two so you've got eight eight colored card stocks and eight pattern papers they do give you a lot there you can make a lot of cards plus you have the toppers there and this will work with any other colors and things that you use as well but um really like this one let's just roll that back up and we can have a little look inside the booklet here so you'll have a welcome by Christina then you'll have your contents this is where the magic happens or where the magic happens sorry this is Christina's craft space and then what's in your box so let's just see what it does say for h yeah flower shaping tool so use this flower shaping tool to add dimension to your die cuts used with a soft mat this tool is perfect for breaking down the fibers of your card stock to add curves and shape we know you we will show you how on page 24 so yeah that's good like that one and then all the dies and now here's the card so you can straight away see that lovely curved effect there and how they've used the toppers together and that kind of trellis effect which is really nice i love the layers there with this one but um those that you know you follow me you know i always kind of do something just that little bit different so my idea isn't there let's see if what i'm thinking is anywhere else throughout the the uh little booklet here they are nice i do i really like it love the effect and that's one thing Christina always does is she does lots of layers to her cards so there's always so much detail you see all the flowers there and the leaves are really nice i do i like that they're just that little bit more rounded the round one's nice as well and nicky's done this one here so she's focused on the stamping and like blending the flowers so it's nice to use the stamped plant pot there and then actually the die cut flowers and we've got this one here and these it's really pretty making the heart there it's a nice idea and then this is the new product which if you follow again you would have seen all of this shown on my channel i'm going to be featuring the easter egg ones again soon as well or the oval sorry the oval box collection oh it's the extravagant egg die set that's going to be coming out again soon and this is my favorite i love these and then Jeanette unfortunately Jeanette's now left so it just shows how in how in advance these are put together so i'm no doubt Jeanette's seen this but that's a really pretty card again i love that she's layered up the tulips even more that's really full with the bars and used a little bit of ribbon there really pretty and then there's another one by Christina there and then she shows you how to shape your flowers and also coloring your pearls so she's using an alcohol marker there to color your pearls i have seen that being done so it's a really nice idea to just buy plain ones and then you can have them any color that you want and then here so carol she's created an easter card there so it's a nice it's a clever way to use that or that yeah that lattice effect i guess really nice and again there's another one there it's very pretty and then Christina's top five and then here we have some designed by Emma and Claire again so these are your quick there's always the quick makes so they're really really pretty and then that's the end there so yeah so my idea is not there so that's good so hopefully i'll be able to give you some even more inspiration and um yeah i look forward to that and i like collecting these i you know i try to share one to two tutorials every month featuring the latest box so i will get those out and then i collect them and i like to go back to them every now and then and i've pulled things out from them so i might think oh yeah i love the sentiment in that and the the last one that was done by Ruth i've gone to the champagne bottle quite a lot for just other cars that friends have asked me to do and also like the sentiments in that one are really nice there's a nice surprise one which i've used quite a lot so yeah it's surprising how much you kind of go to them because they're just there all together so i really like that so let's pop everything back okay so that is a box six i've also found that my ink cubes are starting to really kind of start to form a nice collection now as well and i grab them a lot because they're so small and compact i just pull the drawer out of my storage and they're there in front of me and i've got a real nice variety of colors coming together so this one's all gone out to these subscribers if there are ever any left they will put them up onto the website so i'll share the links below but if you are you know interested and you'd like to see a bit more check out my playlist i've got all the unboxings on there and i think you've still got a few weeks left to sign up for the next box which is by Helen Griffin and there's already an unboxing or kind of a look inside that box on the craft stash website so again i'll share all those links below and i'll be back again soon with another video thanks for watching bye
